NZVNA Webinar: Purrfecting Renal Nursing: Supportive Care for the Ageing Feline with CKD

The kidneys play a vital role in maintaining homeostasis and supporting overall health, particularly in the ageing feline patient. As renal function declines in cases of chronic kidney disease (CKD), thoughtful and proactive nursing care becomes essential to slow disease progression, manage clinical signs, and optimise quality of life.

This session will provide a focused overview of feline CKD, with an emphasis on the unique challenges in managing geriatric patients. Key topics will include relevant renal physiology, patient assessment, and diagnostic considerations, as well as practical nursing strategies such as hydration support, nutritional management, and recognition and management of common CKD-related complications.

By the end of this session, attendees will be equipped with the confidence to provide tailored, patient-centred nursing care that supports both treatment plans and quality of life in ageing cats with CKD.

This webinar is being recorded. If you are unable to attend the live lecture, a link to the recording will be shared with you a few days following the lecture.

Complimentary for NZVNA members, non-members may purchase a ticket.
